Electrical Muscle Stimulation

Conveniently located to serve the areas of Beverly Hills and Los Angeles, CA

EMS (Electrical muscle stimulation) Personal and Group training has a number of short-term and long-term benefits for those who train with the technology can experience.

Short-term increases in strength and endurance are among them.  The long-term benefits of continuing with EMS training are going to be evident with maintenance of maintaining balanced muscle mass throughout your entire body, correcting postural deviations, and relief of back pain are among a few mentionable benefits of training with EMS.  

About EMS in Beverly Hills

When lifting weights at the gym, your brain sends electrical signals to your muscles eliciting a voluntary muscle contraction. EMS simply bypasses this process in sending additional, involuntary clean stimulation to the muscle fibers. Furthermore, your EMS trainer has the ability to adjust each individual muscle group during the training session to maximize efficacy of every movement, allowing the trainer to focus on form and apply intensity specific to the individual.  

Benefits of EMS

Adults of all ages, levels, and physical conditions can benefit from EMS training.  EMS is low-impact in that it requires little to no weights due to the ability to apply  and adjust the level of stimulation needed from client to client. This can particularly be beneficial for clients with recent injuries where the muscles are weakened or have partially atrophied.  Also, individuals who cannot strength train due to injuries can easily conduct intense strength training programs with EMS at Element Fitness.

EMS can quickly and noticeably improve one’s posture in that it strengthens the stabilizing muscles of the spine, the stimulation during training also provides additional lumbar support that can benefit those with weak back and/or abdominals. In addition to burning more calories, reducing recovery time, significant increases in anaerobic endurance and muscle strength are among the results that can be seen while training with EMS.

Preparation

We ask first-time participants to refrain from eating 1.5-2 hours prior to training, and stay hydrated before, during, and after the training session.  

The beauty of EMS training is that the client is not required to wear or bring anything with them.  At Element Fitness, we provide all undergarments for EMS sessions and Stretch treatments.  

All paperwork will ideally be filled out prior to arrival.  We will send a document request to each potential client to fill out some important and required documents prior to their appointment date.  

Ongoing Training Sessions

The frequency of EMS sessions will specifically depend on the clients conditioning and ultimate goals.  Most do 2 EMS sessions per week, with 2 days of rest in between. There are others who come once per week as a supplement to their strength training program.  It is possible for athletes to train up to 3 times a week with EMS depending upon the individual and situation. 

We are able to do anything that can be done in a traditional gym in the fraction of the time.  

Our services are appointment based and a clients EMS Trainer will partially be dependent upon scheduling.  This will ultimately depend on if the client wishes to train with a specific EMS trainer.  

Introductory EMS sessions are between 17-20 minutes, ongoing EMS sessions are 25 minutes long.  

Each session ends (given time constraints) with a 3-minute relaxation program utilizing stimulation that has a loosening and massaging effect on the muscles.

Clients can enjoy the benefits of a complete strength training program coming in studio for 2-25 minute sessions per week.  If a client prefers to use EMS as a compliment or to supercharge their current strength training routine, they will typically come once per week.  

Recovery

Clients who participate in their first EMS session will feel great following their first workout.  The endorphins will be rushing and muscles may feel quite a bit fatigued immediately after the session. 

Clients will experience delayed onset muscle soreness where soreness will typically come 2 days following one’s first EMS session.  

We always ask that each client refrain from any strength training for 2 days following their first session.  In addition, static stretching at least 2 times per day and any form of cold therapy recovery methods will assist in minimizing soreness.  

Results

Clients who do regular strength training at a gym will quickly experience strength gains in the form of being able to achieve additional reps and weight in the gym. Clients can realize noticeable improvements in both aerobic and anaerobic endurance and training programs can be designed to focus on improvements in this area.  

At lower frequencies transcutaneous stimulation can help to loosen and massage the muscles which is associated with contributing to increased flexibility when paired with a sound recovery program.
